Quote by Julia Cameron

Love is not love if it compelled by reason and driven by logic - love exists in spite of those things, not because of them. It is a emotion which needs no fuel to fire it or oxygen to feed it; if you have to look for the why, then stop looking; it was never there at all.

Love is not love if it compelled by reason and driven by log

Summary

This quote suggests that true love does not require reason or logic to exist. Love transcends rationality and is not driven by logical justifications. It is portrayed as a powerful emotion that does not need external factors to sustain it. If one feels the need to rationalize or explain why they love someone, then the quote implies that it may not be genuine love. Love simply exists and shouldn't be dissected or analyzed; it cannot be reduced to logical reasoning.

Love, love is like the future, you never know what you're go

Love, love is like the future, you never know what you're gonna get. I've learned to take love like I take life, one step at a time. We need love. Without love, our lives would be nothing, our lives would be as dull as a cardboard box. Love is what makes us strong, when everything else seems to be going wrong. Nothing can stop love from reaching us, not even a broken heart.
